OF the state. No Indians have
ever been located within is territorial
limits. They appear to have been stu
diously kept off of il in locating the
tribes and fixing their boundaries. For
the United States government to wrangle
about this small spot of earth with one
If the states is indeed like "grest Her
cules whipping pig" Should the land
be left to good faith actual settlers and
tillers OF the soil without profit to the
state or to spectators in its disposition,
the question would work out, perhaps,
its own solution. The general govern
ment would then derive as much benefit
from the land as the state of
Texas, and the good of the state
would be the good of the gen.
eral government. I am supposing thai
there is no Indian right 10 stand in the

Now, sir, in conclusion, let me say that
in anything l have written it has not
been my intention to charge willful mis-
conduct on the part of the commissioner
Of the general land office. He has simply
been mistaken in his construction of the
laws. Many men before him have been
so mistaken and many such mistakes will
no doubt hereafter be made by others.

Marvellous Record of agricultural and In
dusrriai Developments IN South Caro-
liua.
CHARLESTON, S. c., Jan. The News
and Courier publishes an elaborate re-
view of the agricultural and industrial
developments of South Carolina during
the past year. In sn editorial analysis, it
rays: ain manufactures the results are
magical and marvellous. The number of
man ufacturing establishments in the
state has advanced from 1880 in
1860 to 3242 in 1856 The capital
invested has increased from Sc, 93l, 1853 TO
s2l, 1927 $40. The number of HANDS en-
ployed VS. 1888 in 1886, against 1904 in
1860 and $40 10 1870 The value OF pro-
ducts is S29, 1851, 55l. The cotton m lis
give employment now to 40, $50 persons.
Ii is estimated that the value of agricul-
rural and garden products for 1886 was
S44 l09, sol, and the value of corn alone
nearly half the valae of the cotton crop.
There is food for thought in this,
and there is still more in the
table which gives the gross value per
acre of the principal crops in the state.
Cotton is no longer king, at least in South
Carolina. Irish potatoes lead the list
with q value of S8S per acre as against
Sl2 for cotton.
The inc lme of the people Of the state
from agricultural productions, in differ
eut branches of manufactures and from
the mines and quarries amounts to 80 per
cent. more than in 1860, when the slave
system was supposed to make the state SO
prosperous"

CHAPTER III.

Lady Valworth had been rather glad to
avail herself of Sir Thomas suggestion
to spend few weeks in town with her
sister, Mrs. Brand-a fashionable woman.
Of the world with very kindly heart,
who, childless herself, had adopted the
daughter Of II dead sister, now charm
ing girl Of seventeen, and engaged to
Grant Boyle, her cousin. She is, how
ever, hardly to be regarded as a young
lady fairly launched upon the world, as
she is still undergoing course of study
with various masters, and reading in
German three times week with gov
erness-a girl Of about her own age, who
had lived so much abroad as to be an al
most naturalized Prussian.
Nadine Roche counted herself lucky
when she sought and found employment
in the home of Mrs. Brand. She had
drunk sufficiently deep of the waters of
affliction to be almost on the borders of
despair, when Fate, who is not always
unkind, shunted her on to the line that
led to, at least, glimpse Of prosperity.
Her pupil blossomed into her friend.
Mrs. Brand took special fancy to her.
Her feet seemed to have dropped into the
primrose way, and she felt ut last, poor
little soul, that she could lift her head to
heaven with the firm assurance that she
could walk, without fear Of falling, upon
the earth beneath.
Her pupil, Millicent Grey, is almost as
pretty as she is, if not quite. A tall,
stately girl with frins;ed lids. from which

CHAPTER w.

It Is quite o'clock as Nadine leaves
the house in Park lane and turns her
face hOmeward 1t is very dark for even
an April evening, and the lamps are all
aglOw, making her immediate world so
pretty that she is rather glad than
otherwise of her inability to meet with an
empty tram cur, and turning into Picca-
dilly, walks leisurely down its pictur-
esquc hill with thorough appreciation
of the charms surrounding her. 1t is late,
certainly, but women-unless they 60
half way to meet it-seldOm meet with
impertinence; and Nadine, pretty and
distinguished in appearance as she Is,
pursues her way in an even, uninter-
ruptcd fashion toward Regent circus.
A great, bulky woman, loaded with
parcels, coming somewhat abruptly
against her, stops her progress for mo-
mcnt, and compelling her to swerve
aside. throws her almost into the arms Of
tall man, who very gravely laid his
hand upon her arm. a little shock runs
through Madness veins. She stops dead
short, and looks up at her companion in q
dull, stupid way. She grows deadly
white, and her heart feels as though it
were about to stop beating.
"Ah! you! Mr.. Duran" she says
faintly. "You-you frightened me-
l." she parlses.
1t is impossible to account to him in
any natural way for the emotion that is
ovcrpowering her.
He is IL man of grave exterior, hardly
good-loOking, but with q strange, earn
est expression, that goes fur to redeem
the irrcgularity of his features. He
is about 35, but looks considerably
older than his age, rs some men will.
Grief, said many, aged hin-his wife
having been taken from him when he
was only rs, and when he had seen
but two anniversaries of his wedding
day. But as usual, gossip was wrong;
those two unhappy years of welded bliss
having convinced Mr.. Duran that all
was vanity, SO far as his wife was con-
cerned In truth, he had never loved her,
but only learned that fact too late.
There is suggestion of strength in
his whole face, and specially in his
mouth and lower jaw, that makes itself
felt, and would perhaps be oppressive
but for the almost womanish softness and
gentleness of his large hazel eyes. A
heavy mustache conceals handsome
mouth, and it and the hair about his
brow are slightly tinged with gray.
"Clytic writes to ME to say she misses
you terribly" Mr.. Duran says presently.
They have turned. and are now thread

consider the cruelty Of the privation.
: ''There, now you are laughing at me as
usual" says Massareene, and (for fear
she'd he lonely, perhaps) he breaks into
low musical laugh also.
''That's charming necklace you have
on" says he, after little bit, that re-
gret to soy was spent in kissing the
hand of Grant Boyle's bctrothed.
"What is it?-sapphires?'
"And diamonds-yes.
"a gift of-his?"
He looks really sorrowful now, as he
tell himself how impossible it would be
for him to rival such princely gift. He
might give his honest love-his whole
life to her service-his very life; but
there is no money with him to purchase
such magnificent gewgaw as this.
''No, silly boy! Where would Grant,
get it? Uncle Timothy solepnly pre-
sented it to me on the day Of my presen-
tation. That is quite month ago now.
Ahr'-with aquick sigh-"how long ago
it seems!"
"You have spent the greater part Of it
with-iifm,'' 80
Mr.. Massareene seems to have an un-
conquerable difficulty about pronouncing
his rivals name.
'That's exactly why" returns she,
calmly. "And so you admire my bau-
bles?'
"They are the finest things have seen
this season-or any other, for the matter
of that" He feels quite rush of enthu-
siastic admiration now he knows that
Uncle Timothy and not the detested

little heart-shaped balls falling from the
necklet shine like fire in this light"
"There is tiara, too, and stomacher.
But didn't feel like living up to them
yet. Yes, it was o valuable gift, but
one rather too elaborate for debutante.
Nevertheless, I wear it, if only to please
him."
"You seem bent on pleasing every
one, save me-"
"And yet have pleased most of all, :"

leaning toward him.

dear little thingr' says Nadine
warmly, and more naturally than she has
yet spoken. This other little pupil of
hers, this little daughter of the grave
man walking beside her, is very dear to
her. "Tell her miss her too. Will you
tell her that, Mr.. Duran, please, when
you write, and that I count every day to
the one that will bring her back to me?"
"I shall tell her."
Then he looks at Nadine keenly. The
girl seems to feel the earnestness of his
regard, because presently she throws up
her head, as If in challenge, and looks
straight at him.
"You are thinking?' she asks rather
dehantly.
"How impulsively you express your
Self, and how tenderly-and how uncer-
tain am whether you mean it or not"
"You give yourself great trouble to
thus study your daughters g0yerness, +"
replies she coldly.

Salt in the whitewash will make

Wash the mica of the stove doors

Brass work can be kept beautifully

To clean willow furniture, use salt
and water. Apply it with nail

If, after having tooth pulled, the
mouth is filled with salt and water,
it will allay all the danger of having

Salt as a tooth power is better than
almost anything that can be bought.
It keeps the teeth brilliantly white
and the gums hard and rosy.
TO wash silk handkerchiefs, soak
them first in cold salt and water for

Carpets may be greatly frightened
by first sweeping thoroughly and
then going over them with clean
cloth and clear salt and water. Use
4 cupful of coarse salt to large basin

Nothing is better for sore throat
than gargle of salt and water. 1t
may be used as often as desired, and
if little is swallowed each time it
is used it will cleanse the throat and
ally the irritation.
Salt, in doses Of one to four tea
spoonfuls in half pint to pint of
tepid water, is an emetic always on
hand. This is also the antidote to
be used after poisoning from nitrate

If the feet are tender or painful
after long walking or standing, great
relief can be had by bathing them in
salt and water. A handful of salt to
a gallon of water is the right proper
tion. Have the water as hot as can
comfortably be borne. Immerse the
feet, and throw the water over the
legs as far as the knees with the
hands. When the water becomes
too cool, rub briskly with a flesh
towel. This method, if used night
and morning, will cure neuralgia of
the feet.-Good Housekeeping.

Professor Humphry, of Cambridge,
has prepared series of tables which
contain some interesting informa-
tion about centenarians. Of 81 per-
sons whom he mentions, at least IL
2 males and 8 enthusiastically at
tained the age of 100. Others at
tanned very nearly to the hundred
years. Only one of the persons reach
ed 1O8 years, while one died at the
alleged age of LOG. Of the 52persons,
36 were women and 16 men. Prof.
Humphry tells us the comparative
immunity of women from the expos
ures and risks to which men are
subjected, and the greater temper
ance in eating and drinking exhibit
ted by women are the chief points
in determining their higher chances
of longevity. Out of the 36 women
26 had been married, and II had
borne large families. Of the 26 Wo-
men who had been wives 8 had mar
ried before they were 20, at l6, and
2at17. Twelve of the 80 centenari-
ans were discovered to have been the
eldest children of their parents.
This fact, adds Mr.. Humphry, does
not agree with popular notions that
the first children inherit feeble
ness of constitution, nor with the
opinion of racing stables, which is
decidedly against the idea that first
lings' are not to be depended on for
good performance on the course.
The centenarians generally regard
ed were of spare build. Gout and
rheumatism were, as & rule, absent.
"It seems" says Prof. Humphry,
"that the frame which is destined to
great age needs no such prophylactics,
and engenders none of the peccant
humors for which the finger;joints
(as in gouD may find vent"
OF the so aged people, "a only had
no teeth, the average number of
teeth remaining being or 5. Long
hours of sleep were notable among
these old people, the period of repose
averaging nine hours; while out-of-
door exercise in plenty and early
rising are to be noted among the
factors of a prolonged life. One of the
centenarians "drank to excess on fes-
tive occasions )" another was "free-
beer drinker," and "drank like a
fish during his whole life." Twelve
had been total abstainers for life or
nearly so, and mostly all were "small
meat eaters" ."-&. James, Gazette.
